Engaging modern consumers in reducing waste with pencil-shaped products made from herbs/spices that vanish during use.

Long description

Lalapis is a humorous, eco-friendly twist on spice storage, replacing billions of traditional jars with organic, compostable pencil-shaped products. Designed for kitchen use, these innovative pencils made from compressed herbs and spices can enhance dishes, drinks, and desserts directly or in cooking.

The project began with research on non-reusable food packaging, leading to a solution that transforms the traditional spice rack into compostable utensils, minimizing waste and air emissions.

Unlike conventional packaging, Lalapis items are entirely compostable, reflecting the growing demand for sustainable products. This innovation aligns with current trends favoring organic purchases and addresses environmental concerns surrounding traditional packaging materials.

Notably, sharpening these culinary pencils adds a playful element to cooking routines, merging familiar actions with unexpected materials, creating a unique and engaging experience while reducing environmental impact.
